Thailand: Abhisek Dusit Throne Hall, Vimanmek Mansion, Dusit Park, Bangkok

The Abhisek Dusit Throne Hall, built in 1904 for King Chulalongkorn (Rama V), was used for state occassions. It is built in a Moorish style and now houses the Support Museum (a museum showcasing traditional hand crafted artifacts). The Vimanmek Mansion is a former royal palace and is also known as the Vimanmek Teak Mansion or Vimanmek Palace. Vimanmek Mansion was built in 1900 by King Rama V (King Chulalongkorn) by having the Munthatu Rattanaroj Residence in Chuthathuj Rachathan at Ko Sichang, Chonburi, dismantled and reassembled in Dusit Garden. It was completed on March 27, 1901 and used as a royal palace by King Rama V for five years. In 1982 Queen Sirikit asked permission of King Rama IX (Bhumibol Adulyadej) to renovate Vimanmek Palace for use as a museum to commemorate King Rama V by displaying his photographs, personal art and handicrafts. The palace is the world's largest golden teakwood mansion.
